[Chronic polyarthrosynovitis in the goat: histological and physicochemical study of an animal model of apatite crystallopathic rheumatism].
The aim of this paper is to describe clinical pattern and pathogenesis of spontaneous chronic polyarthritis observed in Swiss goats. Roentgenograms, histologic findings, ultrastructural study and microprobe analysis of synovium samples show apatite microcrystal deposit ion. Thus this spontaneous goat disease may be related to apatite microcrystal deposit ion disease in man, so called crystallopathic-hydroxyapatite rheumatism.
